My Wd External Hard Drive Is No Longer Showing Up When I Turn On My Computer

I cannot find my hard drive anywhere on my computer. The green light is on and plugged in.  the drive normally shows up on its own. Nothing has happened to it. It was working and all of a sudden it stopped. the WD is making a weird rotating noise like it's trying to connect but can't. It says the model # is WD1600I032. Please help. Thanks.
